Jeremiah 14:18 in Context — Jeremiah 14

16 E o povo a quem eles profetizam será lançado fora nas ruas de Jerusalém, por causa da fome e da espada; e não haverá quem os enterre, eles, suas mulheres, seus filhos, e suas filhas; e sobre eles derramarei sua maldade.

17 Portanto tu lhes dirás esta palavra: Corram meus olhos em lágrimas noite e dia, e não cessem; porque a virgem filha de meu povo está quebrada de grande quebrantamento, [de] praga muito dolorosa.

18 Se saio ao campo, eis os mortos a espada; e se entro na cidade, eis os doentes de fome; e até os profetas e os sacerdotes andam rodeando na terra, e nada sabem.

19 Rejeitaste a Judá por completo? Tua alma detesta a Sião? Por que nos feriste [de modo] que não haja cura para nós? Esperávamos paz, mas nada há de bom; [esperávamos] tempo de cura, e eis o terror!

20 Ó SENHOR, reconhecemos nossa perversidade, a maldade de nossos pais; pois pecamos contra ti.
